I went to a bee class a few weeks ago and we spoke about swarming.  I asked
if clipping a queen would reduce swaming and the I got was the queen
wouldn't get far but besides that, clipping a queen makes the other bees
think something is wrong with the queen and they will try to kill her off
and supersede her.  So I was recomended NOT to clip.  My question is, IS
THIS TRUE?
